« and now for something completely different | Main | all of my maps have been overthrown »
I had a great time working on Numb3rs today, but I'm too happily exhausted to say much more beyond that right now.
When I washed my face a few minutes ago -- one of the last things I do at the end of my day -- I noticed that there was some makeup on the towel.
"Gosh," I thought, "I haven't seen that in a long time."
I'll sleep well tonight. I can't wait for tomorrow.

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference happenstance has changed my plans:
These are the stories Wil loves to tell, because they are the closest to his heart: stories about being a huge geek, passing his geeky hobbies and values along to his own children, and vividly painting what it meant to grow up in the ’70s and come of age in the ’80s as part of the video game/D&D/BBS/Star Wars figures generation.
Congrats on getting the gig! We *love& Numb3rs I can't wait to see the ep you are in!

Good to hear that you are having so much fun with this. You deserved it :) Can't wait to hear more about your time on the set.

Cool! My wife and I love Numb3rs.

Have fun, but do not fall under the influence of the dark side! Writing is your true calling! Resist the siren sound (smell? er, feel?) of makeup! Resist!

Sweet! This is one of the few shows i watch and i'm pumped that you are going to be on it! Congrats :)

Congrats on getting the job, Wil - I'm going to follow this show more closely from now on.

All my "yay" are blong to u! :D
Great to hear you're enjoying yourself, and am champing at the bit for your "ep with the Eps'" to air.

Sounds like you're having a blast! Can't wait to see you back in this particular saddle, so to speak.
Nice Wilco reference, btw. ;)

The internet is weird. I have never watched Numb3rs, because I am morally opposed to titles that try to substitute numbers for perfectly good letters that we already have, but now I find myself thinking I'd better watch this episode. Because, you know, an internet stranger who is famous will be on it, and I read his blog regular-like. Because it's like someone I actually know personally will be on the tv. I guess thanks, internet, for effectively making interpersonal communication a whole different world than it used to be.

Aww!

First thought that entereed my mind: "When i wake up in my make-up..."
Gratz, Wil!
You ever hear of a need for a short, fat, a-hole computer geek, you know where to send 'em! ;}

Whee!! So excited for you. We're Numbers junkies, so we're looking forward to seeing your episode.
I'm so glad you're having such a blast. I hope you get to play someone really eeeeevvviiill (because evil is way more fun than good).

So do they let you wear your own t-shirts (I assume that as a character who's a comic-book nerd, he would wear t-shirts)? If so, are you using the opportunity to subliminally plug great stuff? If not, why? Why, Wil, Why?!?!
Posted by: MattGoldberg | October 25, 2007 at 08:22 AM
Hey Wil, how cool is it to read so many positive reactions from people you have never met but are none the less giddy about your career?
(I think it's very cool)
Posted by: topcad | October 25, 2007 at 08:23 AM
You gotta let us know when it airs. I totally can't wait!!
Posted by: Nita | October 25, 2007 at 08:36 AM
I've actually never seen that show, but if you can tell us when it's going to air I'd watch it and give it a shot. Congratulations. :)
